VA Hunter Education Course

Online Education/ Quiz: http://homestudy.ihea.com/index.htm

Background on Virginia Hunter Education Courses - basically the
easiest way to do this for those of us in the District and lacking a
vehicle, will be to take the online education course and quizzes (link
above) and then register for an "Alternative Delivery" course (more
info below) where you bring in your test scores and complete the
written test and skill-based components.

The first available course is on March 21, 2010 from 12pm-5pm at Fort
Belvior, Virginia. To pre-register, call Archery Center Staff at
703-805-3688. If we can all register than we could all drive out
there, etc.

While March 21st seems far away, the online portion is pretty
substantive and we need to find out the practical skills and get to
the range to practice so this is actually a pretty realistic
timeline. If you're interested in doing this as a group, let me know
and we can start to get organized.

If I'm missing anything, please chime in! Thanks! Kim

Alternative Delivery Course

The Virginia Hunter Education Alternative Delivery Course is composed
of an online portion, a written test, and a series of practical
exercises which must be completed by each student. After selecting an
Alternative Delivery course date from the list of Hunter Education
courses, the student should complete the online Hunter Education
course at the International Hunter Education Association's Web site.
Quiz results from each section must be printed and brought to the
practical exercises. After completing the on-line course, the student
should study the Hunting & Trapping Regulations section at the
Department of Game and Inland Fisheries Web site. Questions from this
section and the online course will be included on the written test.
The student should then register for an Alternative Delivery course.
Upon satisfactory completion of the test and the practicals, the
student will be awarded a certificate of Completion of Hunter
Education.

I'm in too. Does this get us permits to own/rent/shoot or is that
another process? I really am completely in the dark on all of this
but I'm excited to learn!

Thanks to Kimberly for doing the research.
